Abstract
The explosive transformation of mixtures of HMX and benzoyl peroxide with aluminum was studied. Aluminum oxides formed during initiation of an impact explosion were investigated. An x-ray analysis showed that aluminum is not oxidized during explosion of its mixtures with benzoyl peroxide. An analysis was made of aluminum oxides formed during explosion of HMX mixtures with aluminum hydride and ternary mixtures of aluminum, HMX, and benzoyl peroxide. It was found that the state of aluminum introduced into the composition and the explosion temperature influence the structure of aluminum oxide (Al8/3O4), whose lattice is a derivative of the spinel lattice.
